Net position = non-commercial long − non-commercial short, futures only (CFTC Legacy report), in contracts. Positions are as of each Tuesday and are normally published the following Friday. Percentile is the mid-rank of the latest value within the trailing 156 weekly reports; it is not shown until at least 52 weeks of history exist. Change (σ) is the latest weekly change divided by the standard deviation of the prior 52 weekly changes (|σ| ≥ 2 in bold). Commercial net = commercial long − commercial short.
